Family Portraiture Workshop August 2014

I have never conducted a photography workshop that is just focused on family portraits, so this is the first! If you are a parent who is interested in taking better family photos, I would totally encourage you to come for this workshop! The workshop is targeted towards beginners and amateurs who may have some experience taking family portraits. I will share my experience, not just technically, but also some really practical tips that will help you achieve better results. Even if you are not a parent, but love taking photos of families and children, I do encourage you to participate.

If you do have any problems registering for the workshop, do contact us and we will assist you.

So do join us this 3rd August. Space is limited.

Pre-Wedding, KL skyline: James & Alexia

James and Alexia first got to know about us through a friend’s Sikh and Hindu wedding that we photographed in 2012. James had moved to KL from Perth, Australia to work; whereas Alexia relocated from the US to Malaysia for work as well, with the intention of having fun along the way, seeing a bit of Asia for a year…but definitely not meeting boys! It was fate, however that brought them together to the same office in Kuala Lumpur.

The friendship soon evolved to something more and then 3 years later, James proposed! They are having a civil ceremony in Perth in December 2014 and a Christian ceremony close to Alexia’s Honduras home at Antigua Guatemala amongst colonial ruins. (Which sounds absolutely heavenly! By the way, we’d loveeee to travel to Guatemala to shoot a wedding! Hint hint!)

Enjoy these set of pre-wedding images taken by Jamie and Diane.

Family Portraits in Melbourne: Andrew, Jessey & Maddie

I got to know Andrew through his sister, Amy Yeoh, who is a friend from my church, DUMC. Well, thanks to Facebook, we could get connected through the years, even if it was a random viewing on a status message! After I delivered my little Krysta, Jessey connected with me on Facebook when I posted that I had some sleep issues with Krysta. She was a very helpful source of information and gave me some valuable tips to assist sleeping babies… well, sleep!

It was great that I managed to photograph their cute little family in Melbourne during my holiday there recently. They chose to have their family portraits taken at the University of Melbourne since it was where they had studied in the past. It was a gorgeous day, and we had some lovely moments together, though Maddie was adamant on demonstrating how good she was at running away from the camera!

Casual Portraits: Florian & Marianne

It was a surprise gift for Marianne, Florian’s girlfriend… the portrait session, that is. The both of them hail from Germany, but Florian came to Malaysia on a student exchange program. What a great way to see the world! We were glad that we could be part of this surprise for Marianne! One of Florian’s requirements before the shoot was to have sunset shots. If you’ve lived in KL long enough, you know that sunsets could be a daily occurrence or none at all! So our photographers Weiming and Nigel were a little concerned before the shoot, but on that day, they got some gorgeous sunlight. Thanks for working it for the camera!
